. By the way, just what is the past tense of "respec"?

It depends whether spec is short for specification or specialization.

If it's short for specification, then it's based on the verb specify and it would be respecified.

If it's short for specialization, then respec doens't work, because specialization is a noun. In this case it would be correct to say you "changed specialization". But the fact that respecialization isn't a word suggests that spec probably isn't short for specialization.

So, assuming "respec" makes grammatical sense, respecified would be the "proper" past tense of respec.

Note that most of the above was my own thought process of getting to the conclusion. If I was smart, I wouldn't have even listed specialization as an option, because I would have known it was a noun without having to go look it up.

I believe "respec" is an abbreviation for "respecialize", the past tense of which would be "respecialized" if I am not mistaken. But if one says "respecialized" folks will look at you funny. What then is the past tense of "respec"? Note "respec" is often used by some as a noun, but I am speaking of the verb (obviously I hope).
